So I love it!
Totally a fan of Queen here!!!! So I love it!!!!! Thanks Amazon for the return when the fist one came with some imperfections they were AWESOME!!!!!!Now, maybe some people will think it is to expensive to buy it, yes it is, but like I said before I am a Queen fan and in my eyes has a high value. I am not and audiophile or anything like that but this studio set sounds like heaven, I guess you need a good audio system too but I use a regular (yamaha) 5.1 channels and the sound is amazing. To add it the Color LP .... WOW...... I love it............. the sad part is this USA version does not come with the MP3 codes ......... or maybe was just mine that did not have it. The book..... AMAZING.... (well almost everything they (Queen) throw out there for the fans is gold for me, like I said "almost" everything, the book gives us a little more inside of Queen, some memorabilia, nice stuff to spend some time on it. Over all I love it and any fan of Queen out there should get this.

Left out in the rain!
The box set is nice! I really didn’t mess with it to much because I didn’t want to get any thing dirty and wet. The slip cover is also missing which sucks! USPS left my package out in the rain, doesn’t surprise me, people these days don’t care about your package, they just dump it off, as long as they are getting paid I guess. I have had this problem before and actually caught the idiot the last time. He just catapulted my package from the walk up about 5 feet from the porch. Any way, cool vinyl set if your a hard core Queen fan!

Packaging is brilliant, sound is great but the records...
I have been a fan of vinyl for all my life and just couldn't resist this box set, even though I have all Queen records in standard edition issues. When I received my first box set I was overwhelmed by the care taken in the packaging and for the genius idea of making the albums in colored vinyl. I have left the box records unplayed for several years until I finally decided I should try them out and proceeded to play the first album. Surprise! The record wouldn't fit the spindle of any of my turntables (too tight). I them tried the other albums and most (but not all!) had the same problem. How to enlarge the center hole without destroying the records became a #1 concern and I found a solution using sharp scissors. Unfortunately, as I was "carefully" carving the hole, my hand slipped and I got a nice and deep scratch on the label and last track of "The Works". That method had clearly not worked, but it got worse! I used another tool to enlarge the center hole and now some of the records have a "loose" fit. In short: get a second box before it's gone from the market. This one will be tested and I will NOT use anything to tamper with the center hole. Now, getting down from my soapbox: if you can afford this box, don't hesitate: purchase it. It's the most beautiful item in my vinyl collection. -Fernando

A thing of beauty
I put off buying this collection as I already have all their studio albums on black vinyl l, but I decided after buying the greatest hits 1,2&3 box set that I wanted the coloured studio collection aswell they sound amazing and look well and the book contained with-in the package is well presented I wouldn't expect anything less from a Queen release 10/10

All time best box set made. The book is worth the price alone. RIP Freddie and long live Queen.
For me this is money well spent. This is one of the best box sets I have ever purchased. It weighs a ton, LOL. I'm not going to bluster on the sound quality or compare them to the original vinyl I have had in my collection for over twenty years, Heck since they came out I bought them new. The colored vinyl is COOL. The book is worth the price alone. Very cool information in the book from Brain and the rest of the band. Yes it is expensive but I do not regret it one bit. If lost or stolen It would be replace immediately. What more can I say I love it !

AWESOME!!!!!! A MUST HAVE FOR ANY QUEEN FAN!
I have been a queen fan since I was able to listen to radio on my own (1980s). This is a gift for my 50th birthday from my family. When it came I was so excited to open the box (very heavy). This set is so very well put together and contains all of their 15 albums in 18 discs. The visual presentation is brilliantly formatted from the packaging to the different colors of each of the discs. Also included in the box is the fully illustrated 108 page 12"x12" hardbound book. Queen is for me the best band ever. I never got to see them in concert myself, but this comes close.

Made me love Queen even more
Having been a fan since the late 70's, I always had an affinity toward Queen. Now, having this collection I feel complete. The quality and presentation are thoughtfully put together in this set and so far, the records I have played through all sound great.

A Hit Gift
I got it for my Husband’s 35th birthday. He Loved it and so did everyone else. Each of the vinyls are individually sealed and the entire collection comes in a nice collectible box itself. I waited patiently for the price to drop and was lucky to be able to buy it in time for his birthday.Worth the wait.
